There is a fundamental problem which all litigators know of fighting a war on two fronts. If you get an inkling that your client isn't as on your side as you are on his, let him go. The guidance from our governing body and from our insurers should be as follows:- "either do the job or don't". How many construction cases go sour because the householder decides to do some DIY ? Despite the welcome support from the Court on this occasion, who knows when a solicitor hating judge is going to go the other way. Division of responsibility in any walk of life is very often a disaster.
